#6 - I really have no horse in this race, but Trump did attack Stew… [+] (10 replies) 03/18/2016 on "Dumpf" +29

#8 - Deavas (03/18/2016) [-]

I know. But the argument against Trump is retarded

#14 - schneidend (03/18/2016) [-]

It points out the hypocrisy in his attacking Jon over the name change.

#23 - Deavas (03/18/2016) [-]

No it doesn't

#24 - schneidend (03/19/2016) [-]

How does it not?

#25 - Deavas (03/19/2016) [-]

Because Donald didn't change his own name

#26 - schneidend (03/19/2016) [-]

But, if he believes in honoring your heritage, why not change back to his own original surname?

#27 - Deavas (03/19/2016) [-]

Because he didn't change his own name. It's technically his heritage now that his name is Trump since he was born into it. He doesn't have to change his name back to something it never was for him. Technically, ironically, that would be ignoring his heritage. John Stewart did it on his own

#28 - schneidend (03/19/2016) [-]

Well, that is a good point. But, then, why criticize somebody else for something an ancestor has themselves done? There's really no reason to be a dick about this kind of thing.

#29 - Deavas (03/19/2016) [-]

Because he doesn't give a fuck and his whole platform is literally just to cause bullshit. But people still think he's serious

Except it wasn't an argument against his name having changed, it was an attempt to dispel the connotations Americans often apply to the name "Trump". He himself admitted on the segment this was born of that "Trump" implied success.

It's exactly how the Flying Spaghetti Monster was born. It was used to dispel the automatic awe some people feel when hearing the word "god". They replaced "god" with "Flying Spaghetti Monster" as a way of highlighting the other ridiculous shit peoples' perceptions just gloss over when a god is involved.

Both of these are just examples of somebody attempting to highlight that humans make connections between words and other meanings, which can be irrelevant. I'm not here to dispute your opinions on Trump or John Oliver, just to point out that you seem to have misinterpreted Oliver's intentions in a way that indicates you've never actually seen the segment you're criticising.
